what is a short frame glock?

[tackstrp]

Just tonight i have read "short frame " on a Crimson trace advertisement, Glock web site read " slim frame" and have read "small frame" forget where. This leave me confused. Per the Glock Web site slim frame means the width is reduced to 1.13 inch on the model 36 45 auto..

I have no peapicking idea what "short frame" or "small frame" means. Could some one please square me away?

The glock url http://www.glock.com/english/index_pistols.htm only lists the Glock 36 as a Slim frame and no mention of the popular description of short frame.

SF stands for short frame.

Its the only way to go on the 20 and 21 model pistols even if you have big hands.
I wear XXL gloves and find the SF models much more comfortable
